Playoffstatus.comis a Web site that predicts likely outcomes--final standings--for college hockey conferences and other sports, too. This is a purely statistical method of projection, based on past games. So, for example, it doesn't take into account the fact that UNH lost several games when it was forced to play a backup goalie due to an injury to Brian Foster. There''s also a "What if" page showing projections based on varying numbers of the remaining league games BU may win. As of today, the site predicts a third-place finish in regular season for BU and a 47% chanceof playing for the Hockey East title.
